Description of the problem	I was traveling 25 miles an hour on a road and my brakes locked up at a red light. This happen once before, i thought it was because of the rain. Lucky they car in front of us ran the red light to keep us from hitting them. But on the 8th of this month my sister used my car for her drivers test, she tried to use the emergency brake for her test. The man testing her said it does not work. I do not have the funds to fix this. I feel the dealership i bought it from should fix it or replace the car. This could cause a wreck that could kill our family.
